ABSTRACT:
A motion controlled system for a robotic system stores energy when the robotic system uses negative power and releases the stored energy when the robotic system uses positive power. The motion controlled system calculates the power for causing the robotic system to follow a prescribed motion and applies the appropriate control signals to the robotic system in response to detected parameters of the robotic system.
